Trump says Ukraine 'should have never started it' in comments about war with Russia
-
Maybe he should take his own advice. Now that he has a negative favorability rating, he should just cut a deal and leave before we’re forced to overthrow him.

There seems to be a reality distortion field in Mar-a-Lago.
I wonder what Trump thinks actually happened in Auschwitz...
-
“I think I have the power to end this war, and I think it’s going very well. But today I heard, ‘Oh, well, we weren’t invited.’ Well, you’ve been there for three years,” Trump told reporters at his Mar-a-Lago resort. “You should have never started it. You could have made a deal.”
They weren't just there for three years, they were always there, it's their country.
Trump went on to say: “I could have made a deal for Ukraine that would have given them almost all of the land, everything, almost all of the land, and no people would have been killed, and no city would have been demolished, and not one dome would have been knocked down. But they chose not to do it that way.”
So, is he saying he could have prevented the invasion if Ukraine hadn't somehow caused him to lose the election in 2020? Or is he saying that he could have prevented the invasion as a private citizen and Ukraine turned down his help? Either way, I seem to recall him refusing to say how he would end the war in a day specifically because he wasn't just going to give that away for free, since it was supposedly a selling point for him being president again.
Also, keeping "almost all of the land" means he would have offered free territory to Russia in response to the mere threat of invasion. As if we needed more proof that he was an incredibly stupid bastard with zero negotiating skills and absolutely no understanding of war, strategy, geopolitics, history, etc.
Donny, you're not just full of shit, you're made of shit. The only positive contribution you will ever make to this world is as fertilizer.

Those hopelessly outnumbered german guards successfully mounted a defense against those... Unarmed prisoners.
Look. This made me sad writing it because I knew for sure someone would read it and take it serious because satire is dead and everything gets believed.

If you bring a bowl of petunias close enough, it could turn into something really interesting.
-
Oh no, not again!
-
This guy is totally crazy
-
How dare them to be invaded!
-
What a terrible liar! Ukraine didn't started the war, they just defended themselves. All Europeans know that.
-
Imagine being Ukrainian, forced into a war they didn't want, hearing this shit.
It makes MY blood boil, and I'm not even Ukrainian.
-
No, he's just an ASSet

The US started it in 2014. But one can also say that Ukraine shouldn't have disregarded the Minsk accords, that they should have taken the peace deal back in April 22, they shouldn't have rode Bidens old man penis or sanctified and regularized Nazis. To think the brainwashing has gone as far as regular people on the internet berating world leaders for finally resuming diplomacy while a million soldiers, killed in the racket for rich men's pockets, are in the ground.

Kinda hoping they have some spy's laying around to make people disappear..I presume this is why the border needed to be more secure outside of the US..
-
It's already at the forced stage..

They shouldn't have given up their nuclear weapons with promises the west would help if Russia attacked, then should they.
Just asking for it after all Russia has adhered to all the following-
Respect the signatory's independence and sovereignty in the existing borders (in accordance with the principles of the CSCE Final Act).
-
Refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of the signatories to the memorandum, and undertake that none of their weapons will ever be used against these countries, except in cases of self-defense or otherwise in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations.
-
Refrain from economic coercion designed to subordinate to their own interest the exercise by Ukraine, the Republic of Belarus and Kazakhstan of the rights inherent in its sovereignty and thus to secure advantages of any kind.
Seek immediate Security Council action to provide assistance to the signatory if they "should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used". -
Not to use nuclear weapons against any non–nuclear-weapon state party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, except in the case of an attack on themselves, their territories or dependent territories, their armed forces, or their allies, by such a state in association or alliance with a nuclear weapon state.

Unrelated but was it Norway that had excellent snipers in WW2? Is that still the case? Just curious.

Gee, they could have just handed over Crimea and Donbas, when Putin asked nicely, and all this wouldn't have happened.
It's the same for Denmark. They could just hand over Greenland, I mean red white and blue land, instead of risking a war...

Trump having a .ml Lemmy account was not on my bingo card

A Rapist?! Blaming the victim?!
"She was asking for it"
